StatusRural district

The district was created in 1894 as the part of the Newmarket rural sanitary district which lay in West Suffolk, the Cambridgeshire part becoming Newmarket Rural District.[1]

It was abolished in 1935 and most of the district (the parishes of Dalham, Gazeley, Higham Green and Moulton) became part of Mildenhall Rural District, which merged with Newmarket urban district in 1974 to create the modern Forest Heath district. The parishes of Lidgate and Ousden instead became part of Clare Rural District in 1935, and are now in neighbouring St Edmundsbury.
